Adaptation strategies of Icelandic horses with induced transient hindlimb lameness at walk, trot and tölt

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Icelandic horses are valued for their additional gaits, but assessing lameness in this breed can be challenging. Pelvic (P) vertical movement asymmetries, differences (D) in minimum (min)/maximum (max) position, are used to quantify impact (PDmin) and push‐off (PDmax) hindlimb lameness during the trot, but no established parameters ...

Skeletal muscle in MuRF1 null mice is not spared in low-gravity conditions, indicating atrophy proceeds by unique mechanisms in space

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Microgravity exposure is associated with loss of muscle mass and strength. The E3 ubiquitin ligase MuRF1 plays an integral role in degrading the contractile apparatus of skeletal muscle; MuRF1 null (KO) mice have shown protection in ground-based models ...

Bayesian Recursive and Structural Equation Models to Infer Causal Links Among Gait Visual Scores on Campolina Horses

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gait visual scores are widely applied to horse breeding because they are a fast and easy phenotyping strategy, allowing the numeric interpretation of a complex biological process such as gait quality. However, they may suffer from subjectivity or high environmental influence.

The relationship of sphingolipid mechanisms with oxidative stress and changes in mitochondria during functional unloading of postural muscles

open access: yesActa Biomedica Scientifica
Background. Prolonged inactivity of skeletal muscles is accompanied by the development of oxidative stress and changes in sphingolipid metabolism. The relationship of sphingolipid mechanisms with generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in muscles ...

Key Markers of mTORC1-Dependent and mTORC1-Independent Signaling Pathways Regulating Protein Synthesis in Rat Soleus Muscle During Early Stages of Hindlimb Unloading

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2016
Background/Aims: The purpose of the study was to assess the amount of rRNA and phosphorylation status of the key markers of mTORC1-dependent (70s6k, 4E-BP1) and mTORC1-independent (GSK-3β, AMPK) signaling pathways controlling protein synthesis in rat ...

Changes in the cholinergic system of rat sciatic nerve and skeletal muscle following suspension induced disuse [PDF]

open access: yes
Muscle disused induced changes in the cholinergic system of sciatic nerve, slow twitch soleus (SOL) and fast twitch extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle were studied in rats. Rats with hindlimbs suspended for 2 to 3 weeks showed marked elevation in the

Electroacupuncture Attenuated Muscle Atrophy Induced by Hindlimb Suspension in Rats

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2012
Preventing skeletal muscle atrophy is critical for maintaining quality of life and has been a major concern for those who experienced microgravity, aging process, neuromuscular disease, and various injuries.PURPOSETo investigate whether acupuncture and/or herb medicine can attenuate muscle atrophy induced by hindlimb suspension.METHODSThirty five ...

Retrograde tracing of breast cancer‐associated sensory neurons

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, Volume 298, Issue 2, Page 232-244, May 2025.
Abstract Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality among women. The tumour microenvironment, consisting of host cells and extracellular matrix, has been increasingly studied for its interplay with cancer cells, and the resulting effect on tumour progression.
